I won't lie, this community always refresh my memories every week with the weekly prompt from @hivestudentconnect. I mean it refresh many things alots on how i spent my days back then in school, then i used to think that school is all about attending lectures, doing assignments, and chasing good grades. But along the line , i realized that life in school comes with so much more than studying. You know in one way or the other, we all had commitments tugging at us like family responsibilities, trying side hustles, attending fellowship meetings in church, hobbies, and even the constant need to maintain a social life. Trying to balance all these wasn't a child's play, like it was really a rough time that i passed through in schoool then.
Then, i had to learn the hard way that planning and prioritizing is the key. Like i sat myself down to plan this. I remember how i used to do during exam time then, I would wake up very early just to read before heading to work, and it's also compulsory i resume to work, because if I don't, i'll get sack from the work i was doing, and it's the job i used back then in supporting myself both for my feedings and acedemically, now imagine how tight it was for me back then, but I don't give on the job neither did i give up on my studies, then i had this believe that all my struggles will definately pay off one day
Also on weekends, i usually reserved my evenings for learning of Tech Skill and still make time for family. I have passion for tech skill alot and it's always one of my goal to become guru in tech before i'll graduate in school, so because of that i took tech skill serious too, though i didn't always succeed much in tech skill much back then dues to the fact that i only give very little time for it, but at least it help me not to feel guilty about neglecting something i cherish that i want it to be part of my life.
Sincerely the journey was very serious and tough and there were time i doze off in class because i had stayed up all night juggling work and reading. Looking back now i'll say the biggest lessons is that time won't manage itself, i have to be the one that will manage the time and use it judiciously and i also have to take charge of my life. Aftall i'm the one looking for a way to balance things for myself and sometimes means sacrificing sleep and discipline myself.
This is how things go with me during my time in school back then, but i thank God today, though i've not gotten to where i'm going, but i'm not where i used to me then. At least i give thanks to God Almighty for where i am today and i feel like my discipline and sacrifices didn't waste, it finally pay off for me.
